> The situation of messages vs events is analogous to append-only database vs update-in-place database. You get exposed to the same issues at scale if you rely on the later.

Not really. Messages vs events is a foundational design trait whose discussion involves topics such as adopting distinct messaging patterns such as message queues or pub-sub. They have completely different responsibilities and solve completely different problems.

I don't see how using pub-sub or not changes how you model the data. It should be orthogonal. Do you have a good example?
